Hello,
My name is Alexandria Etheridge and I've been working in this profession for about twenty years. I am currently working on getting through the licensing process. I'm only now doing this as I was married to a licensed Architect with whom we had a company together. We had a design build firm for eight years in Jackson Mississippi prior to moving to the New Orleans area. Since our move here I have worked for architecture firms as well as eight years on construction firms. I have attached a resume here for your review.
If you should care to meet with me I will gladly bring with me my portfolio as it is too large and would take several emails to send.
Sincerely
F. Alexandria Etheridge

APA – American Plywood Association - Engineered Wood Products, Covington, Louisiana , : Field Services Division / Engineered Wood Specialist
Educating construction and design professionals such as Architects, Engineers and Builders on the proper selection of Engineered Wood Products as well as efficient applications and instillation of various products. This was done primarily through trade shows, seminars and one on one meeting. Seminar training topics included Raised Floor Construction Systems, Moisture and Mold Prevention, Code Changes Affecting Engineered Wood, Preventing improper construction methods and Callbacks, Minimizing Common Errors in the field.
I was hired on specifically to promote the Raised Floor Living project. After some discussions with local contractors and the discovery of the tremendous cost difference between raised floor foundation and slab on grade, APA decided to end their active involvement while continuing to support the Southern Pine Councils efforts.
